As the Stardust Train crossed the Coma cluster, the symbiotic imprint on Arui's palm suddenly surfaced with patterns resembling a shattered mirror—golden bands of light jittered chaotically like a collapsed quantum state, with each fragment corresponding to the surging frequency of cosmic entropy, and at its core, a disorderly vortex resembling a black hole came into view. Ice Drip's algorithmic halo exploded with an ink-black alarm on the star map: "Entropy increase anomaly detected! At the fluctuation nodes of the cosmic microwave background radiation, there exists an 'Entropy Realm Civilization' composed of pure disordered energy, and its entropic radiation is devouring the orderly connections of the Symbiotic Network at 0.32 times the speed of light."
Outside the porthole, the originally uniform microwave background radiation was distorting into a boiling ink-sea, countless entropy-increase vortices blooming like black flowers, and stellar light particles disintegrating into disordered elementary particles the moment they touched the vortices. Auli's Photon Harp String emitted a harsh noise like glass being crushed, the light particles condensing on the strings dissolving like snowflakes meeting heat: "They are 'sowing' disorder—just like tearing the score of a symphony into pieces, and the symbiotic melodies of all civilizations are degenerating into noise."
Arui touched the imprint, and the shattered-mirror patterns suddenly extended tentacles, resonating with the ent…
